Biomes

Biomes are sections of the biosphere. A biome is a type of area on earth with specific characteristics. Species in one biome are often found in all of the same biome. Aquatic, forest, desert, grassland and tundra are considered the main types of biomes, but there are many other types, such as wetlands.


If you could create a new biome on earth, what would it look like? What species would live there?
